MINI REVIEW: SINTESIS NANOKOMPOSIT TiO2/Fe3O4 DAN PENGGUNAANNYA SEBAGAI FOTOKATALIS

Abstract

Mini Review on Synthesis and Characterization of TiO₂/Fe₃O₄ Nanocomposites as Photocatalysts aims to compare the photocatalytic activity of TiO₂/Fe₃O₄ nanocomposites in the process of dye degradation. TiO₂/Fe₃O₄ nanocomposites are used because they have good photocatalytic activity properties in the process of dye photocatalysis. Based on existing literature, TiO₂/Fe₃O₄ nanocomposites can be synthesized using several methods such as sol-gel, impregnation, precipitation and coprecipitation. Then applied to the degradation of dyes by considering time, type of light, dye concentration and catalyst. So, this article reviews the latest developments in TiO₂/Fe₃O₄ nanocomposites, especially in photocatalysts of methylene blue and methyl orange dyes by looking at the concentration of TiO₂/Fe₃O₄ used.
